Parasitaster, or The Fawn
(重定向自Parasitaster)
Parasitaster, or The Fawn is an early Jacobean play, written by the dramatist and satirist John Marston in 1604, and performed by the Children of the Queen's Revels in the Blackfriars Theatre.
The play was entered into the Stationers' Register on 12 March 1606, and published later that year, in two separate states: the Epistle in the second states that it is a corrected version of the first, by the author. An apparent allusion in IV,i, 310 to the bloody execution of Sir Everard Digby on 30 January 1606, indicates that Marston revised the play after that date.
